Chapter 3 - Mood Maker

Jenni is now lying on her soft bed. Her body felt tired, not even physically feeling tired, but her mind was not far from her physique, just as tired.

Maybe by falling asleep, she will be able to get rid of the tiredness she feels right now. That's what crossed Jenni's brain this time.

Now and then, Jenni turns her body around, looking for a comfortable position, but unfortunately, it seems futile. Jenni still can't close her eyes.

Jenni's mind is still imagining what happened this afternoon when she met her lecturer...

... Michael

A young lecturer who is only three years away from Jenni's age and the most important thing is that Michael is a lecturer who has confessed his feelings to Jenni.

For some students there might be happy if a young lecturer suddenly confessed his feelings to her, but not Jenni.

It's not that Jenni doesn't like her lecturer. It's just that Jenni has already made Michael into a figure she respects and tends to be a brother figure for her. Jenni always responds and obeys Michael, but unfortunately, Michael misinterpreted her attitude.

Ever since Michael confessed to her, Jenni had immediately refused because she was her lecturer, and at the same time, she considered him to be a big brother to her.

But Michael did not give up and kept waiting for Jenni to open her heart to him.

Flashback On

"Jen !!" said Michael, waving in front of Jenni's face, breaking his reverie.

"Ah, what do you say before?"

"So, you want to contribute to my gallery, right?"

"Mmm, I'm sorry, I think I can't contribute to your gallery this time," said Jenni while looking down.

"Why? Is it because I once confessed my feelings to you, so you started to stay away from me?" asked Michael again.

Honestly, that's the reason, but there's no way Jenni could tell the truth to Michael, right?

"No, it's not the reason. The reason is that I think I didn't sure about my painting now. Maybe next time, when I believe my artwork is a match, I will contribute to your gallery, " replied Jenni to Michael.

Michael takes a deep breath. Honestly, he was disappointed with Jenni's answer because Michael created the gallery for Jenni's sake to display her work. Michael knows Jenni is very talented about art, for that Michael intends to support Jenni fully.

"It's okay, but if you change your mind, you just come to me. I'll give you a great spot."

"Thank you, Sir."

Flashback Off

'Hopefully, I don't regret my choice,' Jenni whispered in her mind

When Jenni tried to close the eyes again, Jenni's cell phone rang, which means someone gives a call to her.

Jenni was about to swear because someone bothered her when she was about to fall asleep, but Jenni's annoyance disappeared when she saw the name on her cellphone screen because the person calling her was ...

... Daniel

"Hi, Jen."

"O-oh hi."

"Sorry to bother you."

"It's okay. I'm not bothered if you who call me," said Jenni cheerfully.

There was a chuckle from across the phone.

Jenni, who heard it, could only smile at Daniel's chuckle, which she thought the voice could calm her heart now.

"What are you doing?"

"Me? Mmm was trying to sleep, but ... couldn't."

"Are you in trouble?"

Jenni was biting her lip slowly. It felt like she wanted to tell Daniel about the things she was thinking about, but can she? Should she tell Daniel, who has the status of nobody for her?

But, on the other side, there is a sense of comfort in Jenni's heart, who knows what feelings it is.

"Hums, .... looks like ..."

"Hearing your answer like that... I know you don't want to tell me your problem, do you, Jen?"

"I guess you're right, Mmm, are you a descendant of psychics?"

"Hey!! there is no reason a handsome person like me is a psychic!"

Jenni couldn't help laughing, and Jenni's laughter broke and heard by Daniel.

'You better be like that, Jen.' Monologue Daniel, who heard Jenni's laughter.

"Stop laughing at me."

"Alright, alright ... thank you, Daniel, for making me forget my problem for a moment."

"Wait, you now call me Daniel without sir or Mr?"

"What's the matter, can't you?"

"Mmm, of course, you can."

"Alright, starting today, I will call you just by your name Daniel, not Mr. Daniel," chuckled Jenni.

Daniel follows Jenni chuckle from across the phone.

After a long conversation, finally, the phone turns off.

'Thank you, Daniel, for making my day more colorful than before.'
